After yesterdays trip to the garden centre with my 82 year auntie I went back today for something to cheer my own garden up. I have to give auntie my full attention when we are out or she might end up in trouble or lost haha. Love her to bits.

Robins seemed to be my thing today and a bit of winter colour.

Yes we have mirrors and old screwdrivers in our garden

among other things

I might check out Victoria Baths, Manchester on Sunday its the Vintage Home Fair and see if anyone else is wearing blue and green.

Blue and green look lovely together; especially the shades you're wearing. I don't give a hoot what colours I wear. I am coordinationally challenged, so mostly just grab what I fancy wearing,Glad Aunty G is still enjoying her garden and I love your wee Robins. Hope you have a lovely weekend planned :D xxx

I love blue and green together, I've got a pair of cobalt blue boots with a jade heel so someone else must agree with us! a fab outfit, just the thing for a gloomy day like today.Your Aunt's garden is gorgeous. How sweet are those robins?The Boomerangs are at the Baths on Sunday! Have a fab time whatever you do. xxxPS Just checked the post box!! Eeek! Thank you so much. xxxx

I always put blue and green together . I love how they look. Your Welsh tapestry pinafore is glorious. Your garden is lovely. I do like a nice mix of things in a graden and I have a mirror at the bottom of miine just for the cat to sit and admire herself!xx

Shhh! Don't tell anyone but I like green and blue together. And the top I am knitting right now is green with blue flecks in it.I always thought the saying was "blue and green must not be seen except upon a fool"!xx

You look good to me Lynn so what do the critics know anyway. Garden looks lovely, I so enjoy finding little surprises and hidden places. Even a garden can have personality and yours definitely has. Have a nice weekend, Angela x

I thought it was "Fairy Queen" too. Maybe as I come from Britannia (originally, then Loveclough as a child) I know the same version as you. As for blue and green together your outfit looks smart and those two colours are what I always end up with in my artwork if left to my own devices. Well at least I veer towards them.Hugs, Neet x

to complicate matters further, in Liverpool, it was "red and green" not blue, in the rhyme. We said, "red and green should never be seen, without a colour in between" No queens or fairies involved! It's all local folklore just the same !Your outfit looks fab anyway!Jo x

Well, they're adjacent on the color wheel, and there are similar tones in all the blues and greens you chose, so phooey on anyone who would look askance. You look FINE, lady! I especially covet those tights. You look lovely and are truly a master of pattern mixing!

WELCOME
